I’d like to exclude certain words or phrases from a search using a minus character, like in Google Search.
For example, if searching for example
gives these results:
- Example Image 1.png
- Example Image 2.png
- Example Video 1.mkv
- Example Video 2.mkv
- Example Document 1.txt
- Example Document 2.txt
Then searching for example -video
would give this:
- Example Image 1.png
- Example Image 2.png
- Example Document 1.txt
- Example Document 2.txt
And searching for example -2
would give this:
- Example Image 1.png
- Example Video 1.mkv
- Example Document 1.txt
Or if these were the unfiltered results:
- Example Old Image.png
- Example Old Doc.txt
- Example New Image.png
- Example New Doc.txt
Then searching for example -"old doc"
would give this:
- Example Old Image.png
- Example New Image.png
- Example New Doc.txt
(By the way, huge thanks for Listary. I use it every day and have convinced a couple coworkers to buy it as well. Their reactions: “20 bucks well spent” and “listary has revolutionized my life”. )
